Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large saucepan, combine ground sirloin, sausage onion and garlic.
Cook over medium heat until meat is browned and crumbled; drain.
Return meat to pan and add oregano, parsley, salt and pepper.
Add tomatoes, tomato sauce and paste.
Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 30 to 45 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine ricotta cheese, Parmesan, basil, and eggs.
Spoon 1/4 of sauce into bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking pan.
Place 3 uncooked lasagna noodles on top of sauce.
Do not overlap noodles.
Spread 1/3 of ricotta cheese mixture over noodles, top with 1/4 of sauce and 1/3 mozzarella cheese.
Repeat layers, ending with sauce, reserving 1/3 of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake 45 minutes. Top with remaining cheese and bake 15 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
